Lawyer has said that he has gathered enough evidence to prove that NUP President Robert Kyagulanyi lied about his age and thus does not deserve to appear on the presidential ballot paper.
According to Mabirizi whom the Electoral Commision gave access to Hon Kyagulanyi's academic credentials upon request, his Diploma academic transcript from Makerere University showed that he was born in 1980 not 1982 as per most of his other documents like the passport and National ID.
The documents further showed that Kyagulanyi scored an F9 in mathematics in UCE and failed the General Paper (GP) in UACE where he scored F9 too. Mabirizi says that Kyagulanyi also lacks the minimum intelligence standards to sit in the top office of Uganda.
Mabilizi adds that his aim is to see that Kyagulanyi does not appear on the presidential ballot paper because some one who lies about his age lacks the integrity to rule a country.
According to the constitution, some one prosecuted with such an offence is banned from occupying a public office for a period of 7 years.
If prosecuted, it means that Kyagulanyi will not take part in the 2021 and 2026 polls but will have to wait for the 2031 polls.
